I would like to claim another honor (at expense of sounding laughable) that my 
blog is probably the only place on Web that always had direct link to the first 
edition of Chris Partridge book.    (01)

I first discovered the book in 2000, but around 2003 it disappeared from the 
face of Google (ie Earth). Luckily I had saved an old link and kept it on my 
blog since http://ontospace.net/blog/    (02)

I also wonder why Chris allowed his work to become so difficult to discover.    (03)
